This collection is the outcome of a major European Research Council funded investigation into the role of narrative in science over the past two centuries. Drawing together a wide range of thought-provoking case studies, this landmark study revises our understanding of what science is and reveals the importance of narrative in how it works.
Narrative Science examines the use of narrative in scientific research over the last two centuries. It brings together an international group of scholars who have engaged in intense collaboration to find and develop crucial cases of narrative in science. Motivated and coordinated by the Narrative Science project, funded by the European Research Council, this volume offers integrated and insightful essays examining cases that run the gamut from geology to psychology, chemistry, physics, botany, mathematics, epidemiology, and biological engineering. Taking in shipwrecks, human evolution, military intelligence, and mass extinctions, this landmark study revises our understanding of what science is, and the roles of narrative in scientists'' work. This title is also available as Open Access.
